XP v4.1.3 to W 7 v5.0

A search of the new C Drive did find the C:ProgramDataCalico PieFamily Historian folder (though it wasn't visible in the root directory listing in Computer > C Drive).

XP v4.1.3 to W 7 v5.0

And is the WET operation a one and only event, or can you have more bites at the cherry & be selective on what is transfer...

.GFT Files

The software that created the .gft file is actually GSP's 'Family Tree'

.GFT Files

Hi
I was wondering if anyone had managed to convert a Tree Maker .gft file into a format readable by FH v4 ?

Like previous posts, I have been given a .gft file and am unable to access it. I'm assured that it was created using the GEDCOM export facility of Tree Maker

Thanks in anticipation
